Judoka wins half Olympic gold for Carinthia!
Judoka Andreja Leski (27) from Koper (Slo) won the gold medal at the Olympic Games in Paris - and has a Carinthian connection!
Six more Carinthians are fighting for precious metal in Paris. Lisa Perterer came second last in the triathlon (50th), dressage rider Christian Schumach had to withdraw because his horse was not fit. Rowing athlete Magda Lobnig, canoeist Felix Oschmautz, professional cyclist Marco Haller, sailor Lara Vadlau, swimmer Heiko Gigler and show jumper Gerfried Puck will still get their chance.
The Slovenian Andreja Leski has certainly made the most of it! The judoka from Koper in Slovenia was crowned Olympic champion in the 63 kg category - and thus also brought some gold to Carinthia.
The 27-year-old is employed as an IT specialist at Kelag International in Ljubljana and has also worked at the energy service provider's headquarters in Klagenfurt. "We always accommodate her for the sport, we are happy for her," beams Christian Schwarz from St. Veit, head of Kelag International.
